Miniteers of Vancouver

I was thrilled to be welcomed to Elizabeth's for lunch in January with the Miniteers of Vancouver.
It is an honour and privilege to be associated with such talented people.
We, of course, talked (a lot) and exchanged ideas. Miniaturists are the nicest people!
 Janine, Elizabeth and Fatima
Linda, Elizabeth and Fatima

I'm now back in Australia after 5 weeks in the ice and snow (in Whistler, not Vancouver), and am anxious to get back to my Ladies' Emporium, "Papillon".
Hope you are all enjoying your minis.
Cheers, Linda

    Hi Again Linda! :D It WAS a lovely time after such a LONG time in between. I was so very pleased that the weather cooperated with us that Monday and also to have been able to enjoy the company of Janine and Fatima as well as yourself. One thing that your photo has indicated is that clearly I have been over-indulging and now I am Bulging!!!! ( good grief!!!!) :((

    Glad that you're home safe and sound- till we meet again.....

    elizabeth :D

      It was a great get-together and your lunch was yummy. Thanks once again. I'm sorting through all the lovely items I brought home and anxious to start using them.
      See you in July!
      Cheers, Linda

      Hi Linda
      I was in Tassie briefly in early December before heading off to Canada. My friend is moving to Queensland in March so I may not make it to Tassie much anymore. I am going to Paris in June though! If only I could take photos as lovely as yours and if only I could stay more than a week!
      Cheers, Linda

    What an exciting holiday, and so much fun to catch up with such lovely mini ladies. It would've made a great trip even more memorable.

      We did have a great time together and I am so fortunate to be able to visit when I'm on the other side of the world. Minis do make it a small world!

    Hi Kat
    We did have fun and it looks like you've been having fun with petit point. I love doing it but the eyes are getting a bit tired. I recently attempted 50 to the inch. May have to show it off on my blog sometime. Keep up the good work.
    Cheers, Linda

    Hi Jean
    Maybe we can do an excursion to Victoria in the summer or you can come over to visit. To see their wonderful creations in person is even better that their photos. Did you see 2 of their works on display at the West Coast Miniatures Show?
    I can't wait to put your beautiful laser cut lace pieces in my "Papillon".
    Cheers, LInda
